    Like everything else good in life, the worklight is from Amazon (ATD tools 80351) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FLNKVYQ/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 It's really a great light. I don't now what I did before I had it.

    North Carolina Rovers and Garages

    Great point. It seems from my quick research that most places don't allow for car storage at all and they all seem to have clauses about not storing hazardous materials (like gasoline). I found one close by that is locally owned and the manager told me that he's had a couple garage renters do...

    Thanks! Really looking forward to getting back to the Triangle. I've sent a few messages back and forth with Rob now and it sounds like there is cool group. I look forward to meeting everyone in a couple weeks. Guess I need to finish my last project of rebuilding the swivels and hubs so...

    It's official: my wife, son, and I are moving back to NC after six years in Florida. She accepted a job with UNC Healthcare so we're going to land in Chapel Hill initially. Likely going to start with a Townhouse or something small until I find work and we settle in on where to live long...

    So what do you think is wrong?

    Sounds like a misfire I was dealing with last week. I was losing power on acceleration and could hear and feel the misfire. When I got home I let it idle in the garage and popped the hood. I could see arcing from one of the plug wires to the valve cover. Went out of town this weekend so haven't...

    New tires and wheels.

    I've been running the S/T Maxx since December and really love them. I haven't had them in the mud yet but they are a great looking tire and I think they'll be a nice compromise between and all terrain and mud terrain.

    Fuel Pressure Woes

    I've been chasing some surging issues for some time now and have gone down many rabbit holes to get to this point. For disclosure, I've checked for air leaks and vacuum leaks. Worked on my timing, IAC motor, and many ignition components. Along the way I've addressed some issues and the truck...

    Site gone down?

    Chris, Thanks for taking this on. This will be a very worthwhile endeavor in the end. I for one will use it often. What's a good paypal for us to send some cash to help offset your costs? I honestly have no idea what scale of money we're talking about but I/we certainly appreciate what you and...

    Hard to find part: mini wedge bulb socket

    I tried tape a while back but mine was too whimpy. Looking good now. Also finally installed my new binnacle support and some new VDO gauges!! It doesn't have so much glare in person.
